Route 123 in Ruby and Sapphire

Route 123 is a lengthy east-west route located in central Hoenn. The eastern terminus is at the southern end of Route 122. The western end is at the eastern terminus of Route 118. Due to the contour along most of the route, movement is limited to westbound travelers only. A portion near Route 118, however, is accessible from the west. These features make Route 123 very similar to Routes 45 and 46 in Johto. On days that Route 119 experiences a heavy thunderstorm, there is also rain on Route 123, but not at any other time.

Route description

Route 123 begins in the north on a long pier leading from Route 122. Fishing along the pier is blocked by stone barriers, however. At the end of the pier, the route curves to the west. East of this spot, a single Cut-able tree blocks access to a pair of paths through the forest. The north path leads to a trainer, Psychic Cameron. The south path leads to a Rare Candy in Ruby and Sapphire Versions, or to a double battle in Pokémon Emerald.

Back on the main path, Route 123 passes by a loamy soil patch containing three varieties of Berries. To the left of the soil patch is a girl who loves Template:Type2 Pokémon. If trainers speak to her while carrying a Grass-type in their party, she will present the trainer with TM19 (Giga Drain).

West of the soil patch, Route 123 meets the first of two shortcut paths in the area, blocked by a tree. By removing this tree, trainers can avoid a large patch of tall grass on the main path. To the west of the grass, the two paths reunite near a second tree. Removing this tree also allows trainers to avoid walking through grass to reach another loamy soil patch with two Leppa plants. Otherwise, a northerly trek from the main path, past a trainer, and through tall grass is necessary to reach the plants.

From this point westward to the section of the route accessible from Route 118, Route 123 is divided by the terrain into a northern segment and a southern segment. It is possible here to go from the northern segment to the southern segment via ledges, but not vice versa.

Northern segment

From the start of the segment near the Leppa Berries, the path hops down a ledge, passing an Elixir before entering a patch of grass. At the west edge of the grass, the path turns south, hopping down two more ledges (where a grassy corridor leads to the southern segment) before returning to the north and forcing travelers into the path of a well-placed trainer. From here, the segment turns west, hopping down a ledge into a grassy area before going over yet another ledge. Here, the segment runs south of a small pond. To the left of the pond is a Calcium. Southwest of the item, the northern segment crosses over its final ledge and merges with the southern segment.

Southern segment

From the trainer south of the Leppa Berries, the route heads west over a ledge and comes to a fork in the road. The south fork leads the southern segment down a ledge while the north fork is a grassy corridor that connects to the northern segment. Following the south fork, the path goes over the aforementioned ledge, passes through an empty area, and hops down another ledge to run into the path of Psychic Jacki (who can be bypassed by walking south of the rock, along the treeline). To Jacki's west is a final ledge, as well as a pair of Twins who will partake in a double battle. West of the twins, the northern and southern segments merge into a single route once again.

Western terminus

Just west of the merge point, there is a hole in the fence that lines the southern portion of the route in this area, leading to an Ultra Ball.

Farther west, the route passes by the Berry Master's house. Inside, the Berry Master gives out two Berries each day. His wife gives out extremely rare Berries if she is told one of a number of special phrases (see below). Outside, there are six loamy soil patches with two spots each, allowing for 12 different Berry types to be planted.

To the west of the Berry Master's house is the western terminus, where Route 123 becomes Route 118.

In Pokémon Emerald, two trainers were added to the area south of the six loamy soil patches. Another trainer was also added in the area east of Psychic Jacki, as well as to the area south of the Leppa Berries.
